[Chorus]
I wrote a letter to my love today
I wrote it so hard on what I gotta say
I'm down and out to tell you the truth
A man can make a poor girl sing the blues
You know what? I couldn't be with you
When there's a chance, please give me a clue
Until I drown in a sea of booze
A man can make the woman sing the blues, yeah

[Bridge]
Took my pride and I threw it away
You gotta release me from this suffering
You'll find me everywhere running around
Until you showed up to find me in the gutter

[Chorus]
I wrote a letter to my love today
I wrote it so hard on what I gotta say
All my life just ending up with you
A man can make a poor girl sing the blues
Yeah, you can make a white girl sing the blues
Yeah

[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Took my pride and I threw it away
You gotta release me from this suffering
You'll find me everywhere running around
Until you showed up to find me in the gutter

[Chorus]
I wrote a letter to my love today
I wrote it so hard on what I gotta say
I'm down and out to tell you the truth
All my life is ending up blues
When there's a chance, please give me a clue
'Cause you know what? I couldn't be with you
Until I drown in a sea of booze
A man can make a woman sing the blues, yeah
A man cam make a white girl sing the blues, yeah

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah
You got me singing the blues
You got me singing the blues
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
